I think it’s true. Perhaps consult a grammar book. I wonder why they were holding candles.

The correct answer is true.

Correct standard usage is indeed used in the sentence: "Every person in the crowd held a candle."

The statement is correctly written in standard English, the language that is the common way of writing and speaking English in the United States. It is the type of English used in everyday communications, in public announcements, government, and schools. It does not use slang terms that could confuse the people.
